Whiskey Peach BBQ Sauce

Are you a DIY’er? When it comes to fixing and building things around my home, I’m not so much. But when it comes to cooking . . . definitely!

Well this very summery BBQ sauce is so quick and easy to make. The two main flavors here are sweet, fresh yellow peaches and my favorite straight bourbon whiskey. No ketchup here. This is simply a beautiful puree of sweet peaches, onions, garlic, honey, brown sugar, Dijon, white balsamic vinegar, chili powder, pepper sauce, and let’s not forget that delicious whiskey! Simmer for just 30 minutes and you have a sauce that is sweet, spicy, rich and tangy!

Just like tomatoes, at the end of the summer, I seem to accumulate an abundance of peaches. And I can’t believe I’m going to say this but . . . you can only eat so many peach pies! Why not put those extra peaches in a BBQ sauce!

This sauce is not overly sweet. Actually the peaches give this bbq sauce such a bright, fresh flavor.

Whiskey and peaches. You couldn’t find two ingredients to make me happier!
Our peach vendor isn’t delivering this year due to the poor crop in S.C. Hoping I can find some other good peaches at the market tomorrow. I need to taste this soon 🙂
